For one, we must have run out of stars to kill off, so I think people will experience fewer star deaths in 2017, and thus at least THINK that it's a better year, and so they'll complain and whine less about that.

Hope 2017 turns out to be a good year. I'm honestly looking forward to it on the gaming side of things, with games such as Sonic Mania, Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment, and Marvel VS Capcom Infinite coming out, not to mention the Nintendo Switch. I think Project Scorpio is coming out as well, whatever that turns out to be.

I'm saving up for a Nintendo Switch to go with the eight other Nintendo machines on my wall. Speaking of walls, my missus painted these recently:

Very nice! Wish I could have pixel art like that on my wall. Maybe NES Mega Man or something. Unfortunately, the house I live in at the moment is rented, so I can't do that. But there is a house we're buying, so that could change.

Edit: Upon closer inspection, it looks like those Mario blocks were painted on canvas or something and hung on the wall, which makes more sense than the blocks actually being painted on the wall now that I think about it. Don't ask why I thought it was on the wall...

Anyway, that's something I could do around here, but it'd look a lot more awkward considering Mega Man isn't square-shaped.

Anyways, interesting New Year.

That'd be mitigated by the fact that Mega Man has a Mystery Mushroom costume that can be unlocked via his Super Smash Bros. amiibo in Super Mario Maker, and the fact that people like myself have compensated for the Mega Man franchise's dormancy by playing fan-made games like Super Mario Crossover, where Mega Man is a playable character.

And agreed.
